St Leonards is not your average plumbing patch. It is one of the Lower North Shore’s business centres, a cluster of office towers and apartment high-rises around the station and the Royal North Shore Hospital, spread across three councils. That means plumbing on a different scale: shared stacks and risers in residential towers, commercial kitchens and fit-outs, backflow and compliance work, and the occasional older home on the fringe. R&G Plumbing handles all of it, for owners, tenants, strata and building managers, with blocked drains, hot water, gas, leak detection and 24/7 emergencies, a fixed price up front and no call-out fee.

From a leaking tap in a one-bedder above the station to a blocked commercial kitchen drain or a burst riser in an office tower, the work in St Leonards spans homes, apartments, retail and offices. We cover the lot, coordinate with strata and building managers where needed, and confirm the cause and the cost before we start.
In a suburb full of apartments, cafes and offices, blocked drains in St Leonards run from a single unit’s kitchen sink to a shared stack serving a whole floor. We camera the line to find the blockage, clear it with high-pressure jet blasting, and trace it back to the source so it does not return through the building.
Digging up a basement carpark or a busy forecourt is rarely an option here, so relining is ideal. We rebuild a cracked or leaking pipe from the inside with minimal disruption to residents, tenants and trading businesses, and the lined pipe outlasts the original.
We repair and replace hot water for apartments and commercial sites alike, gas, electric, continuous-flow and heat pump, and work on the larger systems that serve several units at once. If yours is leaking, cold or tripping out, we will give you a straight repair-or-replace answer fast.
Our licensed gas fitters handle domestic and commercial work, from cooktops and heaters through to cafe and restaurant fit-outs, new gas lines and compliance certificates. If gas is ever suspected, call us, keep the area clear, and we will test, isolate and make it safe before anything else.
Hidden leaks are a serious matter in a multi-storey building, where water on one floor can damage several below. We use acoustic and thermal detection to pinpoint the source quickly, and we also handle the everyday repairs: taps, toilets, mixers and burst pipes.
A burst pipe or major leak in a tower or office cannot wait. We answer St Leonards emergencies around the clock, every day of the year, often same-day, and work with building managers to shut down, contain and repair, with the price agreed before we start.
St Leonards is a dense, modern suburb on the Lower North Shore, about 5 km from the city, and it sits across three councils, Lane Cove, North Sydney and Willoughby. It is best known as a business and health hub, with one of Sydney’s suburban skyscraper clusters, the Royal North Shore Hospital precinct, the towers around The Forum and the station, and a growing run of residential high-rises. The postcode is 2065.
Plumbing here is mostly about buildings rather than backyards. Apartment towers bring shared stacks, risers, booster pumps and hot water plant; offices, shops and the Atchison Street cafes bring commercial drainage, grease traps, backflow prevention and thermostatic mixing valves; and a leak high in a building can affect everything below it. We work across all of it, with owners, tenants, strata and building managers, and carry CCTV cameras, leak-detection gear and the equipment to handle both domestic and commercial jobs.

Strata, building managers & business
Because St Leonards is mostly towers, offices and shared buildings, the problems here look different from a suburban street. These are the ones we are called to most, with the real cause and the way we resolve each.
Most homes in St Leonards are apartments, which means shared stacks, common drains, booster pumps and a hot water plant. A fault in one unit often starts a level or two up and quickly becomes a common-property issue for the owners' corporation.
We trace the problem through the building, coordinate with strata and building managers, and repair it with clear reporting and minimal disruption to residents.
The offices, retail and food venues across St Leonards depend on plumbing that cannot be down for long. Blocked drains, failing hot water, tap and toilet faults, and fit-out works all have to be handled around trading hours.
We schedule around your business, work cleanly on site, and get the essentials back on quickly, with compliance certificates where the work requires them.
Commercial buildings, apartment blocks and medical sites near the hospital are required to have backflow prevention devices and thermostatic mixing valves tested and maintained on a schedule. Miss it, and you risk non-compliance notices.
We test, service and certify backflow devices and TMVs, lodge the paperwork where required, and set reminders so the next test is not missed.
Commercial kitchens and shared building drains take a heavy load of grease, food waste and debris, so blockages here are frequent and often urgent, with a real risk of overflow into tenancies or common areas.
We jet the line clean, camera it to find the cause, and advise on grease management or relining where the same blockage keeps returning.
In a tower, a burst pipe or failed flexi hose on an upper floor can flood several levels before anyone reaches a stop valve, and the damage and cost climb fast.
We respond quickly, isolate the affected riser or line, contain the damage and carry out the repair, working with the building manager throughout.
Whether it is a single apartment, a bank of units on shared plant or a cafe that needs hot water to trade, a hot water failure in St Leonards is rarely just an inconvenience.
We diagnose the unit or the plant, repair where we can and replace where we must, and size any new system to the demand it actually has to meet.
